Zelda Party? That's just plain freaky. And I shall not vote. *thinks again* But to think of Zelda Party, Link and Zelda could get their voices back!

I enjoy both.  They both trirumph the other in diffrent reasons.  So different that favorite wise, they're tied, so I'm not voting.  I have some fond childhood memories with SMW, but I've been an avid Zelda fan longer.

A Zelda chariot racer sounds kind of cool.  But NO!  No spin-offs for that series!

Mario, definitely. I don't have anything against Zelda - I used to own the first Zelda game and I want to get it again - but Mario is probably my favorite video game theme of all time (Sonic and Kirby also rank very high).

I liked the Nintendo Power article about this subject in issue 200. One really good argument supporting Mario was that Zelda games come out only about once every four or five years. I mean, how many times are you going to see something like Zelda Kart? Never.

Also in the NP mag they mentioned that the Zelda series were works of art and each one should take a long time because they are so great.  I mean, look at Twilight Princess!  Personally, I think that both series are great.

If AKI corp. is the one that develops it, I'd so buy it.

As for the question at hand, I can't make a fair choice since I haven't played many Zelda games and I'm not going to base my entire opinion on Wind Waker. I'll wait till I can snag the collecter's edition from my good buddy and when Twilight Princess comes out.
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

I like Mario's full series more than Zelda's full series, but I prefer the original LoZ over DK/DKJr/MB. I voted for Mario, purely because Mario has Mario Kart DS on it's side. Trust me, it was a tough decision.

Mine was a no-brainer.  Zelda isn't my favorite at all.  Well it's better than Sonic for me, but I think Kirby is better.  No offense to anyone, Zelda isn't that good to me.  Mario is the greatest though.

Well, yeah, because you're more into the action type of games. Zelda gets more action later, but it's mostly the plot.

Yeah, I just hate how when you say that you don't like Zelda, fanboys will come out and attack you. I saw once on Nintendo's forums that someone didn't like Zelda and was flamed. Even for having good reasons to back him up.

I don't know how many of you have read the Redwall series, but they work the same way.  I couldn't get into the first one, but when I did, it was a real work of art.  Lots of things are that way.

It might because I haven't really played it.  The reason why is because the part that I did play was really boring.  That might be because it was the beginning. :P
